π½ Drop Down List Setup
The Drop Down List Setup section allows you to add, edit, activate, or deactivate dropdown options used throughout e-manage|ONE. These lists drive consistency and control across your workflows, so proper setup and maintenance are essential.
We strongly recommend marking unused dropdowns as βNot Activeβ rather than deleting them. This preserves historical data while allowing for future adjustments as your business evolves.
